Psych 3: Biological Psychology

Klein and Thorne. Biological Psychology.

1st edition (Worth publishers)

ISBN for regular text: 9780716799221

ISBN for Saddleback "Custom package": 1429225653

Note: The bookstore has a custom package for the textbook.  The custom package includes the regular book plus a CD-Rom and a Study Guide.  The custom package was less expensive than just the (new) book by itself! However, the CD-Rom and Study Guide are NOT REQUIRED for the class (the bookstore “recommends” you buy the items, but I don’t care at all – I don’t even know what the study guide looks like!).  If you can purchase the book used without the add-ons, please feel free to do so.
